Adventure travel insurance for the over 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s

Travel insurance for the over 50s gets more expensive as the years accumulate, especially if you are planning to climb over 8000 metres, jump off a bridge in New Zealand or raft a wild river. Let me know your experiences, good or bad, with insurance companies, their deals, their responses when you got ill, and their treatment of people your age.

I will focus on the UK at first but hope to spread the net to the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand as the 50 Onward site builds. To start off I have included a list of UK companies covering the over 50s market on the Insurance Resources page.
